WOW - I knew it wasn't good but this bad?

[U2Tigers]

Richmond’s pathetic effort on Thursday night means Terry Wallace has a poorer win-loss record than his predecessor, Danny Frawley.

Wallace’s record stands at 35 wins from 89 games, a winning percentage of 39.32 compared to Frawley’s 45 wins from 113 games at 39.82 per cent.

Bring back Frawley - LOL ( kidding)

its a damning stat for TW.

And we played finals under Danny. :stir

Wonder how points for and against compare.

that would be interesting - would have to do averages but I'm not confident TW would be in front.

 

[Tigers of Old]

How about overall records against top 8 teams?

 

[Baloo]

I'd like to know what the percentages are for honourable defeats

 

[Disco08]

Spud - 9712 for - 11194 against : 86.76%

Wallet - 8209 for - 9410 against : 87.24%

I don't think wins against top 8 sides is any better indicator than wins overall. Would it be better if we were losing more often against the lower ranked teams?

It's completely irrelevant how many wins Terry had compared to Frawley.

Here's a hypothetical - If Terry was coach from 2000-2004 and Frawley coach from 2005-now, where would we be today?

5 years of rebuilding followed by 4 years of topping up?

 

[Disco08]

Sorry benny but aside from one draft you could hardly call Wallet's stay a rebuild.

Maybe so, but our list does look better than it did under Frawley.

 

[Disco08]

Which makes Wallet's record even worse I guess. Better players and less wins.

Like I said in another thread, if Wallace was to be sacked, the media will be picking at Terry's 5 year plan like a pack of vultures on a carcass unearthing facts that'll look like a derailed freight train.

Surely how it performs is a better way to judge a list than how it looks? Neither coach has had an acceptable performance level from the lists they've developed.

They arent that hungry just yet GPB - just pecking, pecking, pecking like chooks.... Wait a few rounds and if we happen to go down the same path it'll be like feeding time with the crocs at Australia zoo mate. No more beg pardons,
